One last look at Horseshoe Bend. For this image I turned the camera to look nearly straight down at  the Colorado River1,000 feet below me , and then zoomed in slightly to isolate this section of the river.

I think the colors of the vegetation along the river bank and the reflected magenta clouds along with the river winding through the canyon make for a strong image.  

A little trivia, Horseshoe bend is about 5 miles downstream of the Glen Canyon Dam.  It is in the Glen Canyon Recreation Area, and this area is called the East Rim of the Grand Canyon.
